Well, I went and looked it up and apparently since the iPhone 4 onwards Apple actually started to get their shit together and started supporting their hardware for more than 3 years … I do find it funny though that an unsupported iPhone can’t connect to the app store at all while even the evil Google’s old apps can still get live data without problems.
Yes, it’s a 3G. In black if minutiae matter to you.
It doesn’t have maps, and most websites are unsupported even though it’s far newer than the old Android phone.
I can’t use the iPhone 3 I have in a drawer, even though there’s nothing wrong with it. Meanwhile my HTC that runs Android 1.2 still works with Google maps just fine.
I was also pissed off when all the OSX software dropped support for single-core Intel processors which rendered some very expensive 2 year old machines at work useless for anything Mac-specific.
For context, my Dad is still using a PC I built out of parts recovered from a skip in 2008, and it works just fine.
Do they last longer? I have an IPhone 3 somewhere that just decided to stop working, yet my HTC with Android 1.2 still works fine.
Most of what’s held me back from Apple products has been their planned obsolescence, where the OS was no longer supported, which I’ve never had with a PC. I’ve had my cheap second hand laptop for 7 years now and that still works fine with the latest software
Has anything that starts with an X been poisoned now? If I were xstore’s marketing department I’d feel a little on edge right now.
In other news this headline made me feel old, it took ,e a while to understand what it was trying to say
My Garmin Montana GPS uses 3 AA batteries and it’s really handy if you’re in an area without mains electricity since carrying a an extra set (or even buying alcalines in a pinch) will get you going again!
As a former shift worker this makes perfect sense to me, my health improved radically when I switched to regular hours
No worries, it makes sense now!
What does this have to do with Spain?
Also, in DS9, he asked (kinda) Klingons to join him in battle. They got there in time to help the harvest, and when challenged he said that time was their enemy.
Aside from using it to make jokes? It’s not bad, a legible sans-serif that renders well on low resolution screens. A lot of discussions about “clean” fonts seem to squabble over minutiae while the important part of being readable seems forgotten.
Thank you for getting the joke :-)
Still adapting to Calibri … I liked arial because it was usually near the top of the font list so it was easy to find, lol
I’m in what was one of the greener parts of Spain, we’re on year 2 of a drought already and over the last 3 years we’ve repeatedly hit 40°.
I’m genuinely worried for the future, and it feels completely out of my hands.
